[RFC 1/1] pmem: Add cond_resched() in bio_for_each_segment loop in pmem_make_request

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For systems which do not have CONFIG_PREEMPT set and
if there is a heavy multi-threaded load/store operation happening
on pmem + sometimes along with device latencies, softlockup warnings like
this could trigger. This was seen on Power where pagesize is 64K.

To avoid softlockup, this patch adds a cond_resched() in this path.
